Best Mp3 playing software?

[Euro_Hunter]

Which Mp3 player do you think is the best?

I am using MediaPortal for all my media but the music player is very limited imo and requires playlists to get full use.

I need a player that can shuffle all my mp3's and play random tracks without the need for playlists as I am constantly adding & deleting tracks.

Itunes.

If you do not own a Ipod, FFS don't put Itunes near your PC.

I don't own an ipod?

Banshee.

I can't wait for the Windows version.

If you like iTunes, I suggest you try Songbird.

I am using it and its excellent IMO.

EDIT: New version (v0.7) is out for those that use it. Looking a lot sexier than the last version too.

winamp - the original and best!

Give Foobar a try, might take a bit of working out but the way i use it i just drag files from windows explorer into it and it plays the files. You could just add your entire music folder sort > random and you'll be fine. Plus you can make it look like basically anything you want

Winamp for me, but Songbird looks pretty good.

I use Windows Media Player 11.

For those that are interested, Songbird is actually build ontop of VLC + Firefox.

RAM usage much better now?

Foobar can be as simple or complex as you like, uses very little ram, and has a wonderful community around it

Rhythmbox is pretty good.
And there's Amarok

wait... your using Windows... Oh dear.

Ok.. Here's Amarok for Windows

I haven't read the entire link so that'll be up to you.

Another vote for Winamp here.

Would tell ya, but my PC just broke :/.

I don't understand why people care how much RAM their music player uses? I mean, even if you have photoshop, firefox & msn open at the same time, it's not exactly going to matter much?

That said - I am running 4GB
